First Post!
by Maarten Goldstein, Jul 15, 2005 4:41am PDTSo I was reading some Black previews, and it looks like Criterion is on to something. Shame about its console exclusivity, I just can't get used to a gamepad for FPS titles. Also on FileShack
- Korea: Forgotten Conflict 1.27 patch - US update for this 2 year old strategy game.
- Red Orchestra map pack trailer - footage from the upcoming Summer Offensive Map Pack.
Harry Potter for Kinect announced
Mad Riders trailer goes heavy on the meta
Anarchy Reigns finished, delayed by Sega anyway
Jet Set Radio making its way to Vita
Diablo 3 patch coming next week
I want to put something clever on the cake that (in good fun) makes fun of their money-grubbing motivations! I need help, Shack, because as we all know, I am bland as white rice. :(
sorry if this is a repost

I was sloppy and left them in the root folder of my FTP drive named milf1 and milf2. Oh man the shit hit the fan yesterday at 7am. We haven't talked since. She just now called me at work and said she almost took the kids and left for her mothers.
but she's staying.
MOTHERFUCKING KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!
Actually it went over surprizingly well. She may kill me in my sleep, but still. I casually mentioned that if she wasn't such a fucking pain in the ass, ( see http://www.philsized.com/crackerboy.wmv ) then perhaps I'd be a little less interested in doing dopey shit like taking pictures of random chicks.
Anyway, I knew this day would come. And so did all of you :) I've still got my balls. Good times. However, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone else.

Kinda late to the bandwagon, but a friend in GCR showed me how the battlegrounds work today........ and it looked like a blast (CTF anyway). Also, it looked like one of the best ways to play an MMO without requiring 6hours committed to playtime. Sure, I'd have to spend the hours and days getting gear, but once I'm at least setup a bit - BG's look fun.
So are there some lower level guys out there levelling up toons? I used a 7day trial thing to get a priest to 15 or 20 or so, but I never bought the game to continue it on. I was being PL'd/speed rushed through the quests, but that kinda sucked. I'd rather actually play. I've played healing classes a bit, and I know priests are needed... but is it bad finding people to run with at the lower levels?

I know quite a few shackers were interested in Sony's OLED sporting flash based MP3 players (NW-E4xx/5xx) when the pictures first started floating around. Of course the number one complaint from everyone was that you had to use SonicStage. Well I had $125 in Amazon gift credit to blow so I ordered one and it came this week. After dealing with the gayness that is SonicStage I found this software on Sony's EU site which basically works the same as having drag and drop mp3 support:

So now the shitty SonicStage software is no longer a reason to not buy Sonys puuuurty mp3 players. Here is a pretty good review that mentions another method of getting drag and drop support that I havent tried yet: http://www.siliconpopculture.com/review/109_0_2_0_M9/

MEGA SHACK HELP POST OF HELP
Hi shackers. I'm indecisive and useless, so I need some help. Before I start school in september, I have a couple things I need to purchase.
1) Laptop
2) 17 or 19 (pref. 19) inch LCD screen to replace 2 x 17" crts
3) Digital Camera
So, laptop. I am pretty sure I will be taking my desktop with me, so all signs point towards a smaller laptop that is easier to take to class being what I need. HOWEVER, i really really hate small screens when it comes to doing work. I'm one of those people who has basically embraced multi monitor setups and i have a hard time with say, the 12" ibooks because it feels so cramped.
The ones I have thought about so far include the dell 6000d (but the x300 SUCKS and i wish they had another choice), the 9300 (might be too big), the toshiba m60 (again, big, but quite powerful) and going in the complete other direction, a 15inch powerbook w/ superdrive. If I have my desktop machine and a nice lcd, my 9500pro will suffice for the little gaming i will do (and chances are, since its law school, my time will be limited and I'll most likely stick to consoles).
What other machines are out there? I am Canadian so those nifty dell $750 deals don't work for me.
2) LCD. I would love to be able to afford a 2001fp or something, but its not likely. They have the E193FP and the 1905FP, but there is $100 price difference between the 2. http://accessories.dell.com/sna/category.aspx?c=ca&category_id=4009&cs=CADHS1&l=en&s=dhs
Other than Dell, I've read that BenQ makes decent lcd's that don't cost a ton. Any others I should look at? I think I'll need a 19 to make up for the loss of 2x17" crt's (I dont want to pay to ship them, since I'm not taking much with me).
3) Digital Camera. Hexon has a Canon a95 and I've used it and love it, takes awesome pictures. However, I won't be printing off huge posters and the 5 megapixels might be overkill. Are the replacements for the a75 and a85 any good? What other companies make decent cameras? My family owns a nikon coolpix from a few years ago, and it's ok, but the features are a little short I find and the quality is ok but not 'great'. This will mostly be for just those random nights out and taking around, so size might be a factor.
Any input is MUCH appreciated, especially if you are canadian and have any experience with dell's back to school deals. I don't know when they start usually, and I'm not sure when I should buy all this stuff for maximum savings.

...those of you who follow my daily exploits know that i work at boeing, and i've been in a job for the past year that really hasn't been up my alley. i'm not just talking about WISD guy or the other quirky people who I work with (who are all NICE people, just a little out there sometimes, and I'm sure most jobs have people somewhat like them). it's just that technical writing isn't really my thing...I gave it a shot for a year, and it doesn't float my boat.
anyway, last week before I went to Vegas, I scheduled meetings with two of my old bosses from 3 years ago when I was an intern. one of them works on the new 787, in the electrical subsystems group.
to make a long story short, i got offered a job today in that group, where i could be doing a number of things (among them, helping design/define requirements for some of the electrical systems on the plane, as well as testing/simulating the characteristics of that system), all 1000% cooler and much more interesting than what I'm doing now, and it's way up my alley. I'm really stoked about this new job, how much I'm gonna learn, the increase in responsibility i'm gonna have, and most of all, being involved in a new airplane program.
so, those of you who care, i'm saying, "word. I got a new job. I'm starting in about a month. and it will hopefully kick some ass."
ggkthxbye

Are there any illustrations of Willy Wonka by Joseph Schindelman that date back to 1964 that can found on the internet?
My and I were in a discussion this afternoon about Roald Dahl's vision of what Willy Wonka is like to him when he wrote that book... and we both agreed that neither Johnny Depp nor Gene Wildner is anything like Roald Dahl's vision of what Willy Wonka is like.

I'm planning to format my computer and all that good stuff but I was wondering if it would be best to have two partitions, one just for Windows, and the other for all the games, programs, and other crap.
Would that be quicker/better than just having one main c: ?
Or am I just thinking weird and should have one main 70gig HD?

But seriously, I'm going to SNAP if you guys aren't there, so for your safety i would man up and play some BF2.
How is Ruddles County Ale considered in England? Is it a mainstream, popular beer? This stuff is really damn good, but it would be interesting to know if this is considered the Miller High Life of England or the Anchor Steam....
